Last night I watched The Social Network and I think it was really good and inspiring for a programmer like me. To see what a good idea and some good code can do for the whole world is amazing. I don’t know if the story of the movie is true or not, but it’s very good made and the conversations is just great. It started as a fun project and went big, that’s every programmers dream I guess. To turn your hobby into a career. That’s what I’m doing right now, with Hyper Island and Domani Studios.

This was from the start a school project here at Hyper Island. But since we are not allowed to develop a complete website me and Henrik Porseland decided to do this as a freelance work.
Stena Line is one of the world’s largest ferry operators, with ferry services serving Scotland, Sweden, Northern Ireland, Denmark, Norway, England, Wales Ireland, Germany, Netherlands and Poland. This website is made for StenaLine to promote the new boat between Karlskrona, Sweden and Gdynia, Poland.

I guess there is many of you that already seen this site but I thinks it’s very well done. It’s The Guardian who’s behind it and it shows tweets during every Fifa Worl Cup game. It looks good and it’s a cool idea. Check it out!
Last year I saw this similar visualization from The New York Times, it’s the same thing with reactions from Twitter but mapped out in the U.S. during Super Bowl, Steelers vs. Cardinals. I think it’s fun to have a look at this kind of things and it’s great inspiration. Visualizations from social media is cool!

I am very interested of what jQuery can do and the plugins there is keeps impressing me. I saw the world cup site Twitter did and at the top they were using some kind of dock with the flags of the teams. When I and Henrik Porseland were coding whatisxv.com we wanted a dock with students but the time ran out and we forgot about it.
But now I found jqDock! It’s very easy to use and i will show a very simple example here. You can do both horizontal and vertical dock menus and custom the looks of it very very easy. As I said before I wanted a dock menu with all the students in my class.

Visit the site: http://myskystatus.com
This is a pretty good example of how to market yourself through inviting other companies. Lufthansa wants you to be able to tweet our update your facebook status while you’re in the air. With MySkyStatus that’s possible. It tracks your flight number and creates a tweet about how far above the sea you are and where and when you landed etc.
I think it’s a cool concept and it looks pretty good too!
